Am I Being Mooned By A 2nd Baby?

Is this twins??

I was 19 weeks when this was taken, I didn't notice the thing in the background that looks like the bottom end of another baby until late that night. I've been asked by tons of people who have seen the pics if there are two, my uterus has also measured larger than usual my whole pregnancy so far. I go for a scan and possibly another ultrasound Friday because my doc hasn't seen the pics. The ultrasound tech was very talkative and completed my ultrasound in about 5 minutes...shortest ultrasound I've ever had.

You probably shouldn’t get your hopes up about baby 2... pretty sure baby 2 would be hard to miss if baby 1 is already that big.. unless you got pregnant at a later sexual encounter and so baby 2 is smaller but I wouldn’t think their difference in size would be much

As mom of 5, including fraternal twin girls and a maternity nurse, I agree with the ultrasound tech. At that gestation it would be more clear if there were 2. Also to the person who made the comment about the placenta not being visible on an ultrasound your wrong. That's how they determine if they're fraternal or identical.

I am an ultrasound tech that is definitely the placenta, and yes it does show up on ultrasound since its one of the things we take pictures of in every exam.

I'm pregnant with my 2nd set of twins with my fiance. I think it could very well be twins. To the person who said that it's just the placenta, the placenta wouldn't show up on an ultrasound. It would in a 3D ultrasound though.
